My Questions: What have you heard about breastfeeding and reducing or
increasing the risks of RA? What do you think causes the increase or
decrease?

Stephanie, how good of you to focus on the implications of breastfeeding for the mother. This is certainly an area thet could need further insights.
I do not have specific information on lactation an RA, but would like to point onto ''logical thinking''
I like to discuss with my students the theme that logical thinking will lead to the idea that it is unrealistic to presume that providing the tool for survival of the individual and of the species is bad or unhealthy for the individuals providing this tool. But perhaps this is more a topic for a philosophy thesis?
